Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck was limited in Wednesday's practice, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Andrew Luck limited Wednesday, Pagano ‘supremely confident’ he will play for Colts, fantasy owners
The Colts’ signal-caller popped up on the team’s injury report on Wednesday. We break down the fantasy implications.

Luck is dealing with shoulder soreness, and stood off to the side during the portion of practice open to the media while Matt Hasselbeck took snaps with the starters. Indysportscentral.com's Mike Chappel reports that head coach Chuck Pagano expressed "supreme confidence" that Luck will play on Sunday vs. the division rival Jacksonville Jaguars. It's worth mentioning that a divisional game on the horizon would only give a borderline player more incentive to power through an injury.
Fantasy impact: Fantasy owners better hope that Pagano’s declaration remains true, given the juicy matchup ahead. This report is enough to warrant fantasy owners checking in on injury updates throughout the week, although it appears Luck isn’t in any danger of missing an important divisional game.
Until more discouraging news comes out of Indianapolis, Luck can be penned in as a top three quarterback for Week 4. There isn’t yet need for fantasy owners to panic.
